TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention relates to the field of communications and, in particular embodiments, to a power supply method, a power supply device, and a base station.

BACKGROUND

A base station is an indispensable transceiver apparatus in modern communication. In some remote and undeveloped regions, mains power supply is poor, and power interruption frequently occurs, resulting in working suspension of the base station. Therefore, a power generation system and a backup power system need to be provided for base stations in the regions where the mains power supply is poor or no mains power supply is available. In the prior art, oil machine power generation, solar power generation, or wind power generation is generally used as a power generation system to supply power to base stations. The solar power generation is the most environmentally friendly, and achieves more stable power generation.

An existing base station typically uses multiple sets of solar photovoltaic modules for power generation, and uses a lead acid battery as a backup power source for storing electrical energy, and uses an electrical energy controller to schedule and control the entire power supply device.

In the case of illumination, the solar photovoltaic module converts solar energy into electrical energy to supply power to a load of the base station, and meanwhile charging the lead acid battery. In the case of no illumination, the lead acid battery supplies power to the load of the base station.

In the prior art, in-depth charge and discharge fails to be achieved for the lead acid battery. If the in-depth charge and discharge is performed on the lead acid battery, the life cycle of the battery is greatly shortened, thereby shortening the maintenance duration and increasing the maintenance cost. In addition, the charge speed of the lead acid battery is very low. If a power failure occurs during charge, the lead acid battery fails to function as a backup power source. A base station generally requires that a backup power source be used for three to five days. In-depth charge and discharge cannot be achieved, and therefore, available electrical energy in the battery is restricted. To satisfy the requirement, the base station must be provided with a large-capacity lead acid battery, which increases investment costs. However, the current base station is not provided with other power systems, and therefore the load of the base station has to suspend working when the electrical energy in the lead acid battery is exhausted.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

When the electrical energy control unit detects that the currents supplied by the power generation apparatus are interrupted, the electrical energy control module is further configured to first transfer a current provided by the lithium ion battery to the load, and transfer a current provided by the lead acid battery to the load when the lithium ion battery is exhausted, and the lithium ion battery.

According to the power supply method provided in this embodiment, a lithium ion battery that can be fast charged and discharged and has large discharge depth is added, which reduces the charge and discharge times for a lead acid battery. This prolongs the life cycle of the lead acid battery while satisfying use requirements of a backup power source, reduces the set capacity of the original lead acid battery, and thereby reduces investment costs.

Embodiment 2

The present invention provides a power supply method, including a charge process and a discharge process. As shown in FIG. 2, the charge process includes the following steps.

S201. Receive currents supplied by a power generation apparatus, and transfer currents required by a load among the currents to the load.

Specifically, a power supply device receives the currents supplied by the power generation apparatus by using an electrical energy controller, and transfers the currents required by the load among the received currents to the load by using a cable to ensure normal running of a device. Certainly, the currents required by the load are not fixed, and need to be determined according to the condition of the load.

The currents supplied by the power generation apparatus include: currents generated using solar energy, currents generated using thermal energy from combustion of fuel, electrical energy generated using wind energy, and/or currents supplied by the mains. To be specific, the received currents may include any one of the four types of currents, and may also be a combination of any two or three types of the currents, or a combination of the four types of currents.

S202. The electrical energy controller transfers the remaining currents except the currents required by the load among the currents to a lithium ion battery so that the lithium ion battery is charged.

S203. Monitor the voltage of the lithium ion battery, and determine whether the voltage of the lithium ion battery reaches a first preset voltage. When the voltage of the lithium ion battery increases to the first preset voltage, step S204 is performed. When the voltage of the lithium ion battery does not increase to the first preset voltage, step S202 is performed. The first preset voltage is the voltage of the lithium ion battery corresponding to 95% to 100% of the capacity of the lithium ion battery.

S204: Send a switching signal to a zero-time switching unit connected to the lithium ion battery and a lead acid battery to enable the zero-time switching unit to non-intermittently switch an energy storage unit connected to the electrical energy controller from the lithium ion battery to the lead acid battery.

S205. The electrical energy controller transfers the remaining currents to the lead acid battery. After being fully charged, the lead acid battery enters the standby state, and the remaining currents are still transferred to the lead acid battery to maintain it in the floating charge state.

As shown in FIG. 2, the discharge process includes the following steps.

S206. Monitor the currents supplied by the power generation apparatus, determine whether the power supply is interrupted according to whether the currents supplied by the power generation apparatus are zero. When the currents supplied by the power generation apparatus are zero, step S207 is performed. When the currents supplied by the power generation apparatus are not zero, step S205 is performed.

S207. Send a switching signal to the zero-time switching unit to enable the zero-time switching unit to non-intermittently switch the energy storage unit connected to the electrical energy controller from the lead acid battery to the lithium ion battery.

S208. The electrical energy controller transfers a current provided by the lithium ion battery to the load.

S209. Monitor the voltage of the lithium ion battery, and determine whether the voltage of the lithium ion battery decreases to a second preset voltage. When the voltage of the lithium ion battery decreases to the second preset voltage, step S2010 is performed. When the voltage of the lithium ion battery does not decrease to the second preset voltage, step S208 is performed. The second preset voltage is the voltage of the lithium ion battery corresponding to 0% to 20% of the capacity of the lithium ion battery.

S2010. Send a switching signal to the zero-time switching unit to enable the zero-time switching unit to non-intermittently switch the energy storage unit connected to the electrical energy controller from the lithium ion battery to the lead acid battery.

S2011. The electrical energy controller transfers a current provided by the lead acid battery to the load.

A lithium ion battery has advantages of fast charge, more charge and discharge times, a long life cycle, and large discharge depth. Therefore, a lithium ion battery is added based on the current lead acid battery. This greatly shortens the charge time for a backup power source and improves the emergency-handling capability. In addition, in the case of power interruption, the lithium ion battery is preferentially used, and the lead acid battery is not used before the electrical energy of the lithium ion battery is exhausted. In this way, in the case of short-period power interruption, a power supply requirement may be satisfied by using only the lithium ion battery, thereby reducing the use frequency of the lead acid battery, prolonging the life cycle of the lead acid battery, and increasing the maintenance duration of the power supply device. Moreover, a combination of the lithium ion battery and the lead acid battery may greatly reduce the set capability of the lead acid battery, thereby reducing investment costs.

Further, the zero-time switching unit is used to perform switching between the lithium ion battery and the lead acid battery. Therefore, when the lithium ion battery is exhausted, a power supply unit is non-intermittently switched from the lithium ion battery to the lead acid battery, thereby enabling the backup power source to constantly supply power to the load, and ensuring stable power supply.

In this embodiment, the lead acid battery may be an Absorptive Glass Mat, absorptive glass mat (AGM) type or GEL (gel) type lead acid battery, and the lithium ion battery may be replaced with another type of battery that can be fast charged, and has many charge and discharge times, and large discharge depth.

The method may be applied to a communication base station, and may also be applied to other devices requiring a backup power source.

According to the power supply method provided in this embodiment, a lithium ion battery that can be fast charged and discharged and has large discharge depth is added, which reduces the charge and discharge times for a lead acid battery. This prolongs the life cycle of the lead acid battery while satisfying use requirements of a backup power source, reduces the set capacity of the original lead acid battery, and thereby reduces investment costs.
